Does anyone know how to find the original English dubbed version (without the HORRIBLE narration overtop? I had it on VHS when I was younger, but Youtube only has it with the narration.

@julieduck There is a modern English dub on DVD with modern actors and actresses, but it still has the narrator.

There were numerous old English dubs that people remember, and I've only been able to find this version on VHS. To my knowledge, none of the other version made it to VHS. Your best bet is to purchase the Russian DVD, and put on the subtitles. :) But good luck having it shipped to where you live.

@108laxin If you want to ship me the tape, I can transfer it.

@TheSnarfalarf That's the one I have on VHS! I don't have the ability to get it into a digital format, though. No idea how to do that! It's got way better dubbing though, and keeps all the musical numbers.

@lvlagnetoTwo @dorkylovee This is a dub from around '85: amazon.com/Swans-Hans-Christia­n-Anderson-VHS/dp/630271172X/r­ef=sr_1_157?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF­8&qid=1316051774&sr=1-157

There are four English dubs total I think, and they're all somewhere on Amazon; I've seen each one at some point. This one has songs in it, and the others don't.

@dorkylovee This is probably it, it has lots of songs in it: amazon.com/Swans-Hans-Christia­n-Anderson-VHS/dp/630271172X/r­ef=sr_1_157?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF­8&qid=1316051774&sr=1-157

There are four English dubs total I think, and this is the only one with a bunch of songs in it.

OMG this movie used to be my sister and my favorite movie when we were little, but I remember I was really short when I was younger and I wanted to watch the movie. So when I tried to reach for it, I dropped the VHS and it broke. I cried so hard.....thank you for posting this. I have been looking for so long to find it.
